I have been a licensed full time Realtor since 1992. A graduate of Washington State University (1984) with a Bachelor Of Science degree in Horticulture. I spent a semester and a summer studying German in Germany. Over the years in real estate I have acquired a vast knowledge of the different areas and neighborhoods that make up the city of Los Angeles and her surrounding cities. I have specialized in bank-owned (REO's) and Short Sales since the early 1990's when I started in the business. I work with buyers from first time buyers through seasoned veterans of the buying and selling process. Several of my long time clients have bought and sold nearly a dozen properties each through me. I sell all property types from condominiums, single family homes, residential income properties (2 - 4 units) to commercial properties as well, depending what my buyer is looking to purchase. I taught How To Invest In Income Property for 5 years at the Learning Annex before they closed their doors. In fact I have represented buyers and sellers in nearly 40 transaction sides of four-plexes alone.

Probate and Trust sales are a very specialized field. Lori and I have extensive experience and expertise in probate and trust sales, assisting heirs and attorneys deal with what can be a very long and complicated process if one does not know the process. Our probate and trust sales experience sets us apart from agents that stumble upon what should be done to legally and in the best interest of the estate sell the property. Additionally, we offer a comprehensive list of procedures to sell the property for the highest price in the shortest period of time.

Twenty three years in real estate has allowed me to gain knowledge and experience in all facets of the often complex and ever changing Real Estate industry. I always advocate for the best interests of my clients and that has allowed me to build a substantial client base with a large referral network.

I have a CRS (Certified Residential Specialist) and SFR (Short Sale Foreclosure Real Estate) designations. Less than 5% of agents nationwide have achieved the CRS designation. I always strive to keep up to date on changes and advances in the industry through continuing education classes, seminars, webinars, expositions and conferences. Allow me to put my 23 years of experience and knowledge to work for you!

I have been selling homes in West Los Angeles since 1989. It is important to me to understand and know the constant changing real estate market conditions as well as how the various Los Angeles neighborhoods can vary based on the constant changing market. I not only know, but I understand and I am experienced in all aspects of probate, trust sales, court confirmations, short sales, pre-foreclosures, auctions, BPOs, REO property, foreclosures, market evaluations, pre-marketing, pre-approvals because no real estate transaction or circumstance are the same. My experience and knowledge will make your home process easier. I am a Hybrid Realtor a blending of experience based on 22 years of selling real estate. Plus I make sure the bottom line is YOUR bottom line, not mine.

Education is key for me, so I am always taking courses and getting certified in Real Estate specializations because I love my job and want to make sure I am the best that I can be for my clients. In 1995 I earned both a CRS, Certified Residential Specialist and GRI, Graduate of the Real Estate Institute designations, less than 5% of agents nationwide achieve these designations. These two designations are equivalent to Masters degree in Real Estate and the GRI designation is no longer offered. I also am a Certified Distressed Property Expert, CDPE designation specifically for pre-Foreclosure and distressed Short Sale transactions and have earned a SFR, Short Sale and Foreclosure Resource designation. I have been selling foreclosure properties since 1994 and short sales since 1996. Because of my experience and designations I am an Authorized Short Sale Realtor for a major Bank. This relationship allows me to help homeowners avoid foreclosure and sell their home as a Pre-Authorized Short sale by the bank. There are alternatives to foreclosures especially now, the government has special programs in place to assist homeowners who are facing foreclosure and I am able to help.

Probate and Trust sales are a very specialized field. Jeff and I have expertise in probate and trust sales and in assisting heirs and attorneys deal with what can be a very long and complicated process if one does not know the process. Our probate and trust sales experience sets us apart from agents that stumble upon what should and needs to be done to legally and in the best interest of the estate sell the property. Additionally, we offer a comprehensive list of procedures to list and sell the property at its highest price in the shortest period of time.

My varied experience in market conditions, market strategy, different type of real estate transactions and skillful negotiation is important in buying and selling a home in Los Angeles. Knowing the nuances of LA's communities is key to my knowledge of how to market properties and my ability to help buyers in finding the right neighborhood that matches with their needs and desires. Experience, Knowledge, Results in keeping your bottom line is what I am all about.
